What do you guys think of me saving it?

Question

I'm saving it for marriage. Probably. I mean, if I meet someone and after a long time I feel it's right, then I don't see why I shouldn't just see how things play out and if indeed they do play out I'd be responsible and blah blah. But that won't be soon.

I feel like nobody thinks I'm really serious, but I am. In fact some people have the balls to tell me I'm not a virgin, even though I really am. I guess in this day and age it's kind of a miracle, at 16 to still have it, but you knowww. I try not to worry about it but I don't like people thinking and saying that kind of thing about me. I probably don't look like a girl that would save it, and I don't think I act like someone you would think would, but I want people to know I really mean it.

Is this a stupid decision? Outdated? What do you guys think of this?

Answer 1

I think your decision is great.

And if the guy you get with has enough RESPECT for you he'll wait for you.

:)

Answer 2

I really congradulate U for making this type of commitment.  Hopefully, the person U are finally with will appreciate the level of commitment it takes to do that.  I only hope my own teen daughters will be as strong.  

Answer 3

when you do meet him and let go what will you think of all that wasted time?

Answer 4

I think your doing the right thing. Your right not many girls your age do anymore so kudos to you. Its old fashioned and I think young people are the only ones that can keep it going. It doesnt matter what other people say or think, you and God know the truth.

God bless you!

Answer 5

That is absolutely not a stupid decision!

I am 17 and still have my virginity and I do it for self respect. I am being true to myself.

People in my generation are having s*x by the time they are 13.

It's a personal decision.

I could never have s*x, something I portrayed to myself as something special, with someone I didn't have deep feelings for.

Recently,I was in a situation as to where I could have had s*x.

This guy was so sweet, he was respectful, the whole 9 yards and I thought to myself "This is my chance". But as soon as it was about to happen, I felt this feeling of uneasiness I knew it wasn't my time.

Turns out the guy was a douche bag, just putting on a real good show and completely blew me off because I told him he "wasn't the one".

Sure, we'll always be tempted by s*x. As a quote once said "We can be just like you in 5 minutes, but you can never be one of us again."(Referring to being a virgin).

We have a whole 90+ years to be having s*x! Why rush it?

It's not a race. So take your time. Think about being true to yourself.

You want that first guy to respect you and feel what you are going through. You'll be taking on a whole new responsibility

Good Luck.

I hope I made some sense.
